CLEP at UTSA

National CLEP examinations are offered weekly through the UTSA Testing
Services offices.When scheduling a CLEP test date
for a test with an essay component, a student should consider that it usually
takes four weeks to receive essay score results.

The CLEP Subject and General Examinations accepted for credit by UTSA are
listed in the table entitled “National Standardized Tests: Minimum
Scores Required For Credit at UTSA” (listed below). UTSA is a test
site for CLEP Subject and General Examinations.

The University of Texas at San Antonio grants credit to its students for 28 of the 33 CLEP exams, which are listed in the table, “National Standardized
Tests: Minimum Scores Required for Credit at UTSA” below.
To be eligible to receive UTSA credit for the CLEP exams,
a student must have earned no college or university transcript credit in
that subject area at the time he or she takes the examination.

Although it is not necessary to be a UTSA student to take a national CLEP
test through the UTSA Testing Services office, no UTSA credit is awarded
until the individual is registered for courses at UTSA. Individuals seeking credit from
another college or university should check that institution’s credit
by examination policies before registering for a national CLEP examination.

Changes to CLEP credit awarded is subject to change without notice. Consult the UTSA Undergraduate Catalog for updates.

Updates effective as of: August 1, 2014

Credit is awarded
by accepting it through the Student Records link on ASAP.
